Mum's Gone Climbing: Motherhood. Community. Adventure.

Nell became pregnant in her mid twenties, and took a break from climbing. Her son was born with a rare genetic syndrome, and motherhood became a series of specialist appointments, therapy sessions, and WTF moments. Five years, and another baby later, Nell stuffed her mama feet back into climbing shoes. It was a pivotal moment. Climbing seemed like a wonder drug for the challenges of motherhood, and Nell went on a mission to find other climb mama’s. What she found was a tribe of amazing women.

My take

A raw, honest exploration of motherhood reimagined through the lens of climbing. This is for anyone who's felt trapped by expectation and needs to see a woman reclaiming herself—inspiring without being saccharine.
